Timelessness

This book is for anyone who has ever felt the pressure of the timeline and sensed that it was carrying too much authority. It is for anyone who has looked at birthdays, mirrors, milestones, beauty, desire, or public adulthood and felt that the language surrounding them was too small, too harsh, or too impersonal. It is for anyone who has wanted a deeper understanding for what it means to live through change without handing one's whole self over to chronology.More than anything, it is written in the hope that once the script becomes visible, it begins to loosen. A person may then stand inside time more freely, more consciously and with greater inward authorship. The calendar may remain. The body may remain. The world may remain full of its old categories. Yet, something inward can shift. The authority of the script can weaken.Thus, another relation to life can begin.
